Dunno really, that's a random car I saw online and didn't talk to the owner.

Usually such long studs are used in conjunction with spacers,
they come in different lengths.

These are bit too long in my opinion,
maybe they chose something like this:

90mm is a pretty long size.

Perhaps the owner like the look?

 

Received my Rota RBs from Mach V 17x7.5 Silver w/ polished lip for my R53 . They shipped on time came earlier than estimated. Ordered on Friday Jan 7th and they arrived the following Wednesday. Free shipping and excellent packaging.
can’t wait for spring to install. Bottom line: excellent vendor/service.

Now to decide on tire size 215/45 or 235/40 for a stock r53 with a possible lowering of 0.75-1.0” . Any guidance on tire size here would be appreciated. Goal: handling at least as good as stock and esthetics

 

Hey Madcanvis,
Have you checked this site for checking on different size tires and how
it effects speed, etc. Great tool to help you choose.

I’ve used that for my 4Runner and T100 and now this current setup. It’s handy to compare technically but was hoping for real world application.

 

Is anyone running these wheels in 17x7.5 with any type of of bbl (ie: wilwood, stoptec, Brembo) on an r53?

Does anyone know if the clearcoat peeling issue on the polished part was ever addressed?
